Jewish Union Cemetery Laudenbach near Karlstadt

Complete profile
100

Presumably towards the end of the 16th century, the site on the Laudenbacher Schlossberg is purchased by various Jewish communities from the region around Laudenbach and used as a cemetery. On the occasion of a Jewish census  in 1623 a gravedigger is mentioned for the first time, 30 years later a document mentions an own administrator (Gabbai) for the cemetery, the synagogue and the mikvah (1655). The enclosure wall of the cemetery was built in 1873/74. A Bavarian-wide collection is started to finance the construction project. In 1930 the area is extended to its present size.
